Nah

Well, the companies don't have to abide by the honor code. Their products can't

Exactly. You won't be seeing BYU NLI's with gambling sites and coffee companies.

BYU was just first in line. Other schools will leave byU in the dust

BYU was just fast, creative, and did it with a splash. But the $$ discrepancy will be huge and this is the part of NIL

I see the opposite. There’s only so many top recruits right now. A huge %

Kids will have to wear a logo and pay taxes. May end up making less for the 5

Risky to give a kid a million dollars without the government finding out

They’re getting pretty lousy value for all that money.

Would love to see more programs be able to snag 5 stars like this.

If they pay kids that much….

And all of that is against the rules.

Unless they are just outright cheating, that's not exactly what they said
